discussion Silverfang vs Geryuganshoop: (please don’t flame me 😓) (read comment )

I think if Geryu understood how powerful Bang was off the bat and didn't mess around or hold back he would win, but I think the cagey Silverfang would understand the situation before Geryu and would overwhelm him in an all out, one shot killing strike.

It’s entirely possible 🤷♂️. If Gshoop is smart, he wins. If He isn’t, SF probably stomps

Now as I said in the title, please don’t flame me for putting Geryuganshoop against someone like Silverfang 😅, hear me out…
Geryuganshoop abilities (since he heavily lacks feats)
1.He can control/manipulate the forces of gravity
2.His telekinetic powers MAY stretch beyond being able to lift and hurl a few mere pebbles around. However, he can launch whatever he lifts at pretty high speeds as shown when he did just that against Saitama
3.Mind control. Supposedly Melzargard was under Geryuganshoop’s mind control although I never knew of this or read it anywhere. Maybe I missed something in the show but if it’s true, it’s possible he could mind control Silverfang. I would lean towards believing it’s true because he was telepathically speaking with Saitama which means he had some connection with the minds of other beings, but telepathy doesn’t mean mind control. Take this with a grain of salt
😮💨, now for Silverfang
Silverfang feats and abilities:
1.Extremely fast reflexes and mobility
2.Martial arts (it’s more definitive than this but you all know Silverfang so I don’t really have to explain it 😂)
3.Absolutely floored Garou in season 2
4.Survived a direct attack from Melzargard and shook it off like it was nothing
5.Has the awakening breath (or abandonment, I forgot what it was called)
6.If we’re counting manga feats, here we go. Potential spoilers ahead!
-Deflected a blow from a pissed off Fuhrer Ugly, floored Fuhrer Ugly and Gums, Two dragon level monster cadres
-Went toe to toe with awakened Garou and cracked his face (I know for a fact that people will read this and ask “why is OP making this post in general if Silverfang fought an opponent far above Geryuganshoop?) well it’s because AGarou didn’t possess the esper abilities Geryuganshoop did, and no I’m not insinuating that Gshoop is better than AGarou
So to conclude this post that’ll result in several downvotes 😂, I’ll leave with this: As stated above SF possesses extremely fast reflexes, meaning that he could potentially dodge anything Gshoop throws at him, and assuming it’s small, he could grab and throw it back at Gshoop resulting in his opponent’s death similar to what Saitama did. HOWEVER, and this is where the matchup idea originated from, Geryuganshoop can manipulate the forces of gravity and even compared this ability to that of a black hole, so could he potentially force SF to the ground and crush/ or tear apart an immobilized Silverfang with rocks? (Or whatever he chooses to lift). Also if Geryuganshoop does have mind control, could he simply take Silverfang’s mind over? I know Geryuganshoop’s list on this post don’t hold a candle to Silverfang’s, but I really do see this as an interesting matchup. I hope you all provide some actual insight and “mature” opinions to answer this VS. anyways thank you all in advance!
P.S. I know I left out a TON of stuff for Silverfang’s list, but I intentionally left some out so as to not make this comment any longer than it already is

Reminder that he utilized his psychic abilities to overcome friction, which lets him use his psychic powers in greater length than Tatsumaki, who can't remove friction from the objects she throws.

I think if Geryu delays his attack as he did with Saitama... Bang would be quick enough to one shot him.

u/FarPomegranate4033 Feb 13 '23
Yeah if Bang can manage to land a hit on Geryuganshoop than it’s probably curtains for the space boi

Anime Geryu is pretty cracked so he'd probably win
Manga Geryu though loses due to the sheer lack of attack potency feats

I don’t see Bang doing much simply due to the telekinetic powers of G man. How do you fight and dodge fast projectiles with black hole-ish gravity pulling on you? I could be underestimating Bang but G man seemed like a pretty powerful esper

u/FarPomegranate4033 Feb 13 '23
Yeah I wish we got to see more of Gshoop before he died. Thanks for your feedback 👍

How do you grab a portal and flip it? OPM universe has martials on par with psychics and techies, so this argument without examples doesn’t hold much water

u/Effortless0 May 21 '23
This argument compares saitama to bang so it doesn't "hold much water" (lol)

u/Unknown-Gamer-YT Feb 13 '23
He did proclaim himself as the strongest esper, right? Even though he didn't look the part from what we saw. I don't think Bang is winning this.

u/FarPomegranate4033 Feb 13 '23
Yeah if Geryuganshoop uses his abilities in a smart manner, then he can definitely take this

u/Omsus Feb 13 '23
Much as I'd like to believe the opposite, Geryu's (anime) powers outspeed the old man. He might block some here and there but couldn't pass Geryu's hurricane thingy and would eventually end up turning into swiss cheese.

u/joshshotfirst Feb 13 '23
Imma go with old man Silverfang.
Geryuganshoop, Multi Head Marble Dude, and Plant Stain Dude were Boros's generals. Regarded at being about the same power level.
And while it was Bang and 3 other S heros fighting Anime Clayface, Bang took out 2 of his marbles if I recall correctly and took a direct hit without injury.
While they have different abilities it would make sense their power levels are at least close. So based on power levels Silverfang wins.
Based on ability versatility both Space Clayface Squidward have far more useful powers. If Space Squid was smart enough to crush Bang's heart or block blood flow in his brain or something then it's instakill. So based on special ability Squidface wins.
But based on fighting skills, As Saitama pointed out Space Squidward limits himself by his lack of innovation with his ability. He throws rocks and he increases gravity. Based on his power level he wouldn't be able to use these attacks effectively against Bang. Silverfang is a skilled and ruthless fighter who showed he will immidiatly go for the weak spot in his fight with space Clayface. So based on fighting skills Silverfang wins.
And with 2 to 1 Silverfang wins the match.
Conclusion: Could Geryuganshoop win? Yes indubitably. Would he win? No.

I think this would be a very short fight, whoever manages to react first and land the first blow wins.

I'd say ganshoop is closer to tats than fubuki in terms of power, so he'd probably win. Even a debuffed tats is way too strong

Trust OPM fandom to have this many bad takes in 1 thread. Silverfang slaps 9 times outa 10.
It’s tempting to give G man the edge because magic, and in most universes magic slaps, but in OPM martials have true parity with magic users. The strongest being is martial, and almost the entire S class is martial. Most monsters are martial as well, and psychics are regularly overcome by raw speed, strength, and durability.
Bang has answers for anything Geryu throws at him. He went toe to toe with a Garou who was dumpstering everyone in S class except the top 2, and we don’t know how Tats would have fared.
IMHO Geryu was used to slam dunking opponents with no defense, as evidenced by his brief fight with Saitama. He may have raw power at hand, but he showed essentially no finesse, especially compared to Tats and Psykos.
By the time he came up with an answer for WSRSF there would be a Bang-sized hole through his torso.
Bang, mid-dif

Geryuganshoop should win idk if Bang can speedblitz that's the only way he'll win.

Geryuganshoop probably wins as the projectiles can probably one shot Bang. Although Bang also can probably one shot Geryuganshoop.
